Wow the level of stupidity in this thread is truly depressing. I would consider it great honor to have a son join the military and fight for his country. Those of you who believe that the US is the primary source of evil and injustice in the world are lacking in even a fundamental understanding of history, economics or geopolitics and you also lack a basic grasp on reality.
Your inability to differentiate between living in a flawed but generally decent society like the US and suffering under the endemic corruption and brutality which is a such regular part of everyday life in much of the world indicates that you have led such a sheltered life as to have almost no idea how lucky you are.
The fact that you are so ungrateful as to have no interest in protecting the way of life which you take for granted is pitiful, but the fact that you would mock those who do sacrifice to protect that way of life is unforgivable.
